Chapter 290: Liu Hua’s Treat
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Liu Hua carried 4500 yuan in her pocket, feeling as if she were walking on air. She pinched her own face to sense the real pain and confirm that everything that had just happened was indeed real.
“Wanwan, you’re truly a little lucky star. Tell me, what do you want to eat?”
Liu Hua warmly held Xia Wan’s hand, insisting on taking her out for a lavish meal. Xia Wan understood her excitement needed to be relieved, so they went together to Dongxingge, a restaurant Imown for its good reviews.
This restaurant was slightly more expensive than others, but it had private rooms and an elegant overall ambiance, indicating the thoughtful attention given to its decoration.
Upon seeing the two young girls entering, the waiter barely lifted his eyes and said, “If you’re looking to eat, you can try the restaurant next door. They are more affordable, while we are on the expensive side.”
His words implied that Xia Wan and Liu Hua couldn’t afford their food.
In the past, Liu Hua might have left with Xia Wan right away, but now she had 4500 yuan in her pocket. She was determined to treat her best friend to a great meal, so how could she let herself be driven away?
Liu Hua straightened her chest and sternly told the waiter, “What kind of service att.i.tude is this? We chose to eat at your restaurant today, which means we have enough money to pay.”
“Just because we’re dressed differently, you a.s.sume we can’t afford the meal?”
“If we really can’t afford it, you can call the police and have us arrested, rather than insulting and looking down on us like this.”
“Besides, you’re just a waiter, and this restaurant isn’t yours. What’s with the arrogance?”
Xia Wan looked at Liu Hua in astonishment. She noticed that Liu Hua’s confidence had grown significantly after having money. Her arguments were sharper, and her speech was coherent and smooth. The nearby waiter was now blus.h.i.+ng with embarra.s.sment due to Liu Hua’s strong words.
The altercation quickly attracted the attention of other customers in the restaurant.
The waiter realized he had touched a sore spot. He had thought these two girls were ordinary, young, and probably couldn’t afford the meal, hence his arrogant behavior.
However, now that Liu Hua was acting so a.s.sertively, his confidence waned.
After all, he was just a waiter, and if he escalated the situation to the restaurant’s owner, he might lose his job.
As the waiter hesitated about whether to apologize, a voice came from a distance.
“Liu Hua, why are you so hot-tempered? The waiter isn’t wrong. How can you and Xia Wan afford to eat here?”
“Didn’t you bother to check the prices before coming in? A meat dish here costs three yuan, and a vegetarian dish costs two yuan. Your parents probably earn only two to three hundred yuan a month, right? How can you afford to eat here?”
As the person spoke, she walked closer to them. Xia Wan and Liu Hua turned to look, and it was indeed Song Zhi.
At the table where Song Zhi had been sitting, there was also Zhou Chen and a
chubby girl.
Xia Wan remembered this girl; her name was Li Ning. She had a close relations.h.i.+p with Song Zhi and had grown up together with her. Li Nings mother ran a small grocery store, and her father worked for the government in a position akin to urban management, which had a certain deterrent effect on ordinary people.
Li Ning had a crush on Zhou Chen and used to give him various gifts to please him during their school davs.
When she was with Song Zhi, however, it was Song Zhi taking advantage of her, something Li Ning was unaware of.
Seeing the three of them, Xia Wan suddenly didn’t want to eat there anymore. But Song Zhi had already stood in front of them, looking at them with a mocking and disdainful expression.
Song Zhi waved at the waiter, “You can go and attend to other matters; I’ll handle this. They are my cla.s.smates. I’m sorry for any trouble they caused.”
The waiter had been ready to apologize, but now, with Song Zhi’s intervention, he decided to forget about it. Before leaving, he couldn’t help but give Liu Hua and Xia Wan a contemptuous look.
As he had thought, these two were indeed poor and had been exposed by their cla.s.smate..
